my kind of crowd.....

-hangs out in the kitchen in the morning for a long time before the opening of gifts.
-swoons over cranberry-orange scones.
-relishes gifts such as a) books
b) hand-made clothing
c) gourmet coffee
d) a dyson vacuum. (the hostess of this blog especially...)
e) a Brian Regan DVD
-greets company with shouts of joy, including a dear family from Malone, a young man from Nigeria, and a newlywed couple that come bearing a gingerbread house and a box of custom-made cookies.
-talks so animatedly that they forget to eat Christmas dinner.
-holds a poetry session at the table.
-loves being read to (O. Henry's Gift of the Magi)
-takes caroling seriously.
-rocks out to White Christmas.
-departs reluctantly.

One more Kingly birthday celebration closer to our heavenly home!
Merry Christmas, everyone.

What a simply awesome day with you all! The singing was heavenly and has left me realizing how great our God is! Out church service on Monday was the same way. I know it will get better, and I'm looking for it all!

Sounds fun. Can you host another one when I'm back home?
